The fit on these look great. Wonder why the all black is nowhere near as tight...

Idk maybe it just happened for mines to be a little smaller. Because they make them every time you order (not pre made or anything )

These seat covers need some time to "settle in". most of the wrinkles will work themselves out over time as you sit in them.

Just decided to purchase these based off of this thread. I wasnt looking to do a full reupholster and just wanted to protect the original seats, couple kids and an occasional dog in the car. Hopefully they turn out okay but for 338 shipped for both front and rear I think they may beat the Sard ones that went for quite a bit more since I was wanting all red. I'll post some pics in a few weeks hopefully.

Out of the Box:

I had to get under the seat and remove an elastic band that holds the cloth flap from the upper seat, and connects it to the lower seat. Took me a little while to worm it out and I had to use my cell phones camera in video capture mode, sliding it under and around the seat to see how the bar was holding the band in place. Its fairly simple once you figure it out and was, to me, the hardest part of the whole process, which is to say it was all pretty easy..

Now that the pesky flap/connector was out of the way, I sliped the seat cover on, making sure to line up the holes for the seat belt hook.

After making sure the top part of the cover felt snug I tucked the soft Velcro piece through the seat cushions and fully aligned before the final tightening.

After getting the top seat feeling pretty snug, I realized I was going to have to cut holes for the head rests. I did this VERY CAREFULLY with a sharp box cutter. You want to cut this piece smaller than the actual plastic receptor, this makes it slide right under and will hide any imperfections in the cut.

Here's what it looks like once you slide it under.

.. And now with the whole head rest in. The head rest cover was very difficult to get on correctly, but fit snug once secured.

The bottom part of the seat was pretty easy, with small elastic loops that used hooks to secure onto the seat frame on the bottom of the seat assembly. You don't have to be exact with those either, just be sure to not attach those in a spot where they will be pinched when you slide your seat forward/backward. Here are the final results:

I have had tons of people comment positively on the seats and they cant believe what I paid for the covers. The only real knock I can throw at them is that the lower seat cover's edges show pretty glaringly when you open one of the doors. Great otherwise, would HIGHLY recommend. If nothing else they help keep your stock seats in good shape and add comfort.
hmm yours looks different then the one pictured here. [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Scion-Black-Artificial-leather-Custom/dp/B00F0ZKPGY/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1458541540&sr=8-3&keywords=frs+seat+cover"]Amazon.com: Scion FR-S Black Artificial leather Custom fit Front seat cover: Automotive[/ame]

any new updates on the seat?

Iggee seat covers

I've read through almost the entire thread and can't find anywhere if someone said to take the whole seat out. I've purchased these seat covers and tried looking everywhere for either a install video or directions on what to do but I can't find any anywhere. Any help?
